    Description

    Building on the success of the original Ascend, Brand- X now offer an externally routed cable-operated option with the Ascend II.

    The post carries over the reliability and core qualities of the original. Infinitely smooth adjustment and incredible value for money make the Ascend II the go to dropper post for those riders that require external routing.

    It comes with an ergonomic lever that can be left or right hand mounted depending on your preference. The cable is actuated from the mid cap ensuring zero cable movement.

    The Ascend Dropper mechanical cable-operated seatpost sets new standards for reliability and performance at a fantastic price point.

    Please Note: The 31.6 and 30.9 diameter options come with the 1x Shifter Lever and the 27.2 option comes with the 2/3x Paddle Lever. The 27.2mm size also has a 2-piece saddle clamp so the saddle will sit slightly higher than on the 31.6 and 30.9mm options.

    Customer Reviews

    Brand-X Ascend II Dropper Seatpost is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 89.
    Rated 1 out of 5 by Gabe000 from Dubious durability It worked fine for a few weeks. Then the seat post just got stuck at the lowest position and wouldn't be able to go up. Contacted customer service twice and heard nothing from the warranty team.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by clangrant from Great dropper post Easy to fit with minimal tools if you have basic bike repair skills. Low maintenance.
    Date published: 2021-01-16
    Rated 5 out of 5 by Minsc64 from So far, so good Seatpost was fairly easy to fit and comes with plenty of cable. I've been on two rides with it now and it works well. It seems like good value for money, nothing feels flimsy or likely to break anytime soon. Only time will tell as to it's longevity.

    Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from An amazing preforming droper The post it's self preforms amazingly, love the travel, I'm 6ft 3 on an extra large Frame, at full extension, it allows me to get my max output for a pedal stroke with still enough room to pump my legs, and when I get to the top of the hill I can get the saddle right out of the way getting ready to shredd, how ever, as a budget dropper, the lever should have had more thought put into it, most people will put their dropper on the left next to the crank gears, and their is not enough room, a different design on the levers would be better for the people who don't run a one by crank.

    Q & A

    This is advertised by Brand X to have an option of a 2x thumb trigger rather than the one in the picture. Do you have this option?

    Asked by: TimTC
    I bought the 2x, 3x lever for this seat post separately to fit my 2x10.

    lever

    I have have both front and rear gear shifters. My seatpost is 27.2 mm. Am I correct in thinking that the 27.2 mm version comes with a lever that will fit on the handle bar along with the front shifter? Thanks Alan
    Asked by: Cheddar
    Mine did so I imagine yours will as well. I wanted it the other way round actually since I run a 1x setup.

    SRAM X9 compatibility

    I appreciate the 31.6mm version is only compatible with x1 setup but my X2 setup uses SRAM X9 shifters so both up/down shifters sit below handlebar. Could I not use the 31.6mm version of this as long as I place the lever above the handlebar?
    Asked by: JaeBoyT
    The lever is only designed for use below the bar. You would require the Paddle kit for a 2x setup.

    27.2 option. can i mount the remote switch that comes with the 27.2 on my mtb handlebar next to my left grip? (i have a 1x gear)

    Asked by: 0bsidian
    Being 1x drivetrain, your gear shifter is on the right, then yes the dropper post lever will fit on the left.

    What is the cable diameter?

    What is the diameter of the cable? I can route the cable through part of my frame but need the diameter for the cable inlets.

    Can I replace the cable/outer in the event of it getting damaged, or shorten it if necessary to fit my bike?

    Is the control cable/outer sheath user replaceable in the event of it getting damaged? Do the fittings take standard type gear cable/outer sheath?
    Asked by: amosienko
    This is replaceable with standard cables.
